It was a family reunion for the stars of Will & Grace at the Tribeca Film Festival on Monday night, celebrating the premiere of the "Just Jack & Will" rewatch podcast.
Joining hosts Sean Hayes and Eric McCormack was their former co-star Debra Messing, the show's titular "Grace," who recorded an episode of the podcast with them; the new audio series will recap the show's episodes spanning 11 seasons and spill behind-the-scenes secrets.
Speaking exclusively with HELLO! on the red carpet at the SVA Theater in NYC, the actress, 54, talked about show's legacy of the hit, groundbreaking sitcom. One person who's not a fan? Her son Roman, 19, who's never seen an episode.
"My son has not really watched any of what I've done," Debra revealed. "He sort of felt like he would get freaked out, because it's mom!
"But he knows what I'm doing, and he knows what I've done. But I'm a mom, and it's my best role yet," she continued.

Debra was the surprise guest at Monday's premiere, which included a live recording of the podcast after the audience was treated to a special episode airing.
On social media after the event, she said: "Will, Jack and Grace ~OH MY! My brothers from another mother premiered their new podcast – 'Just Jack & Will'– where they go through every episode of the series. Yes, it's as fun as you would imagine! I was their 'secret guest' and the Tribeca Film Festival crowd was on fire.
